'''Dino Skip''' is a speedrun strategy used to skip the intended route to [[Madame Broode]] in the [[Cascade Kingdom]] by taking advantage of the large amount of height that the [[T-Rex]] capture gains while bouncing on the trampoline.

However, this method is much harder than the standard version of Dino Skip, and many runners who are skilled enough to perform it will opt to use the much faster [[Dino Skip Skip]] instead.
